Nima Voices is an interview series where we uplift our Nima through brief, but enlightening, interviews. In the twelfth episode, Kristen Nemoto Jay, editor of The Hawaii Herald, will be interviewed by guest host Shari Y. Tamashiro, a cybrarian who has helped share the stories of Hawai‘i Japanese and Okinawans through various projects. Last year, Discover Nikkei began sharing articles by Kristen originally published in The Herald. Her late grandfather, a 442nd RCT veteran, helped create the sister-city relationship between Bruyeres, France and Honolulu, Hawai‘i. Join us as they chat about her family and background, Japanese American history and communities in Hawai‘i, The Hawai‘i Herald, and more!
